  • Publication number: 20260111549
    Abstract: This disclosure describes utilizing an image model protection system to improve the defensive robustness of a large generative image model against the generation of harmful digital images. For example, the image model protection system uses digital signatures of identified harmful images to determine whether a particular harmful image was generated by a specific large generative image model. Using digital signatures, the image model protection system matches the harmful image to images generated by the large generative image model. The image model protection system then identifies the prompt used to generate the image at the large generative image model. Furthermore, the image model protection system uses the harmful prompt to implement new security measures to safeguard the large generative image model against the generation of similar harmful images in the future.

  • Publication number: 20250091831
    Abstract: A winding and unwinding system includes at least two winding rollers, a roll-changing device, a sensing device, a measuring device, and a controller. The roll-changing device can drive at least two winding rollers to sequentially move to a set position, where the winding roller located at the set position can wind a strip material. The sensing device emits an in-place signal when the winding roller located at the set position rotates one circle. The measuring device is configured to measure a traveling length of the strip material. The controller, upon receiving the in-place signal, determines a winding radius of the winding roller located at the set position based on the traveling length measured by the measuring device, and when the winding radius reaches a preset threshold, controls the roll-changing device to drive another winding roller to move to the set position and get in contact with the strip material.
